The white sand of South Beach is a special mix of local tradition and world-class boutiques, stores, where the eccentric meets the bohemian, long haired northern beauties alternate with gorgeous  Latinas. At night, the local crowd and international tourists dressed up in varieties of luxurious and informal casual attires will stroll along Ocean Drive and Lincoln Road.  Exotic cars, traffic jams, noise, music are only part of the fun.

South Beach hosts a variety of cultural, art and exhibition events. The Convention Center, The New World Symphony, Concerts at different clubs, Museums and Galleries, can keep you busy every day of the year.

Of course, the best way to enjoy South Beach could be just to walk, or rent a bike or scooter, or just enjoy the lights, the breeze and the beautiful people.

Art Deco is the major architecture that has been the object of restoration and conservation effort by South Beach authorities. Developers are subject to strict regulations restricting any destruction of art deco structures and control the updating of existing buildings as well as new constructions.

The late 1980's saw a renaissance of South Beach. Some activists, lead by Barbara Capitman, organized a movement to place it on the National Register of Historical Places.

This was followed by some major modeling agencies opening offices in the area, as well as a flood of photographers who discovered the special charm of South Beach.

The area is constantly evolving and this is its best attraction. European tourists love to lazily stroll along the streets to their morning breakfasts at the bakeries or the Cuban eateries, followed by their beach sessions, their afternoons at an Oceanside place such as the News Cafe, and their nightly incursions at the world-class night clubs and the exotic restaurants on Washington Street.  Of course, one major attraction is the sight of glamorous tall models, (1500 models are claimed to live in the area!)  beautiful hostesses at the local restaurants, and eventually a famous face.
